The ‘Ali-Aye-Ligang’ festival is celebrated by which tribe?

Mising
Tiwa (Lalung)
Karbi
Sonowal Kachari

The correct answer is: a) Mising

The Ali-Aye-Ligang is a major festival of the Mising tribe of Assam, India. It is celebrated in the month of December to mark the beginning of the new year. The festival is a time for thanksgiving and merrymaking. It is also a time for the Mising people to come together and celebrate their culture and traditions.

The festival is a three-day event. The first day is called the “Ali-Aye” day. On this day, the Mising people offer prayers to their ancestors and thank them for their blessings. They also pray for a good harvest in the coming year.

The second day is called the “Ligang” day. On this day, the Mising people celebrate with music, dance, and feasting. They also exchange gifts with each other.

The third day is called the “Bai” day. On this day, the Mising people clean their houses and prepare for the new year. They also visit their friends and relatives.

The Ali-Aye-Ligang is a time for the Mising people to come together and celebrate their culture and traditions. It is also a time for them to give thanks for the blessings they have received in the past year and to pray for a good year ahead.

The other options are incorrect because they are not the tribes that celebrate the Ali-Aye-Ligang festival. The Tiwa (Lalung), Karbi, and Sonowal Kachari are all tribes of Assam, but they do not celebrate the Ali-Aye-Ligang festival.
